This post contains minor spoilers for Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden, specifically concerning Sephak Kaltro in one of the starting quests.
When I saw Sephak's stat block, I really liked how he uses weapons made of ice for his attacks! So I quickly took the flame blade and shadow blade spells and modified them into this. It uses Shadow Blade as the base, but I gave it Flame Blade's duration. The damage and spell scaling is also sort of better than the original spells, but I thought it was balanced out because cold is pretty commonly resisted, unlike psychic. Also, I decided to keep the finesse property instead of giving it the versatile property, so it's still more viable for spellcasting. Let me know what you think!
